Balushahi also is known as Badusha or Badhusha is a traditional Indian sweet that is soft and flaky from inside and crispy from outside.
Steps to make Balushahi/Badusha:
- For sugar syrup take 2 cups of sugar and 1 cup of water in a saucepan.
- Place in stove top and bring to boil.
- Add cardamom powder when sugar dissolves completely.
- Cook the syrup until one string consistency.
- Keep aside. The consistency of sugar is very important, it should flow like a string when drop with a spatula.
- Now for the balushahi place maida or all purpose flour, baking power, baking soda and ghee in a mixing bowl.
- Using your fingers and palm mix all the ingredients in such a way that the mixture resembles breadcrumbs.
- Add 1/2 cup yoghurt to the mixture.
- Mix yoghurt well to the flour mixture.
- With 2-3 tablespoon of cold water combine the mixture to form a rough dough. Don't knead the mixture, just add water to combine.
- Cover the dough and keep aside for atleast 1/2 an hour.
- After 1/2 an hour, take the dough and divide into two parts.
- Place one portion of dough over the other one.
- Again divide the dough into two and place one portion over the other. These are necessary to form the layers.
- Do the same process again, but don't try to knead the dough. Just place one portion over the other.
- After layering 4 times like that take small lime size portion of the dough and make a rough patty with little impression of thumb in the center.
- Similarly make all the balushahis. We can make approximately 16 -17 balushahi out of this dough.
- Heat vegetable shortening or ghee in a deep pan.
- Slide balushahi to slight hot oil. I placed 8 balushahi in one batch. They should completely deep in oil.
- In low heat fry them. For 1st 10 minutes don't stir the balushahi.
- After 12-13 minutes flip the balushahi with a spatula.
- Fry them in low heat by flipping both sides until light golden brown.
- After frying them 30 minutes in low heat I transferred them in a kitchen towel.
- When the sweets cool a little bit, dunk them to sugar syrup.They should completely sink in syrup.
- Keep in the syrup for 20-25 minutes so that balushahi can soak syrup upto it's centre.
- After 20- 25 minutes transfer the sweets to a dish.
- In the same way fry the remaining balushahi and soak them in syrup.
- Transfer in a dish garnish with some crushed pistachios and serve.
